I guess I'm looking for a new friend ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿฆ

WorriedMagpie July 21st, 2022

I feel wierd doing this - I was buddied up with a person but it looks like they left without saying anything ๐Ÿ˜” -- if you ever come back your always welcome to message me ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿฆ

So I guess I'm on the lookout for another friend, somebody to work towards just being better overall - maybe set some goals and encourage each other? I found having somebody to bounce off was starting to really help -- we can help each other :)

I'll not be as over the top and intense, I was just trying to be encouraging ๐Ÿ˜” - it would be awesome if anyone's out there that could match my energy and not be scared of me, as I'm still kinda figuring out who I am ๐Ÿ™ƒ

If your okay with spam messages and too many emojis then hit me up :)

A bit about me? -- I'm 29 and live in the UK, I have ADHD which I'm trying to work with and I'm trying to become a full time illustrator :)

I guess that's it? It does feel strange doing this a second time, like I failed the first ๐Ÿ˜” I can't wait to here from you and be your new "get healthy" buddy

Hey! How are you doing? โ˜บ๏ธ Iโ€™ve been on this app for a while now, and this is the first time Iโ€™m replying to a post. Iโ€™m looking for a friend as well, someone I can talk to both with regards to trivial things and deep, personal things. I get sad sometimes, and so I really need someone to talk to. But of course at the same time I will do my best to be a good friend as well! โ˜บ๏ธ I also like the idea of encouraging each other and setting goals to be better. Plus, I like emojis! ๐Ÿ˜…

Please donโ€™t hesitate to message me if youโ€™re interested. โ˜บ๏ธ

Hey ๐Ÿ˜Š wow I'm honoured I think I've been spending a bit too much time in the forums recently ! ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿคฃ

Thankyou so much for replying to my thread, I was concerned it just came off as super needy ๐Ÿ˜ฃ

It would be wonderful to be friends if you'd have me :) I think I'm pretty good at peptalks so I got your back, but I need some help staying on track ๐Ÿ™ƒ๐Ÿ™ƒ working in goals together would be awesome :D

Currently I'm trying to stay on top of keeping a schedule, I've never managed it for longer than a few days - I've gone three weeks this time and now it's starting to fall apart a bit ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿคฆ

What sort of goals do you have art the moment? ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿฆ

Hey! Iโ€™m glad to be talking to you! Iโ€™m not sure how I can be of help with regards to your staying on track, but I would be open to learn more about it. ๐Ÿ™‚

A goal I want to achieve is to be able to regularly practice my writing. I love writing stories, and I donโ€™t always have time for it. When I do, I tend to procrastinate. I need to work on that. ๐Ÿ˜…

Is there a way for us to talk in private? Like the same as with listeners? I find it more convenient. Of course, only if you want to as well. โ˜บ๏ธ

@stressedindividual

:) Me too! - and don't worry, it's more just having someone saying their working on goals too, it's motivating even if we're working in totally different directions ๐Ÿ˜

Writing! :0 that's awesome! What kind of things do you like to write? I'm trying to get into children's book illustration ๐Ÿ˜

I'm not sure ๐Ÿค” other than the chat rooms I think it's only if one of us is a listener ๐Ÿ˜ฃ which isn't the most convenient but yeaaah ๐Ÿ˜ฃ๐Ÿ™ƒ๐Ÿ™ƒ๐Ÿ’š

Oh thatโ€™s awesome! โ˜บ๏ธ


When I write, I tend to just go with the flow of my thoughts. Tons of inner monologues, basically. But I like complications and tragedies. I also like stories that are kind ofโ€ฆ unique? Iโ€™m not sure what theyโ€™re called. Like psychological or something? Oh youโ€™re an illustrator? Thatโ€™s awesome! What do you like most about it?


Oh thatโ€™s too bad! How do you usually chat with people here?

@stressedindividual

Sorry it took a while to reply, with a few people replying on here i got a little overwhelemed and didnt know what to do :') -- maybe we could have a slightly bigger "goal hitting" group ? :')

ooh those all sound super interesting, i used to write (fanfic XD ) when I was younger but havnt for a while now, although im currently pondering a comic series which Id need to write :')

Honestly theres not much i dont like (other than feet and hands XD) -- I love character designing and painting with loads of colours and shapes, if its making me smile whilst painting it then i feel like im doing a good job :D

Yeah not sure what to do other than meeting int he chat rooms :') but maybe we could start a new thread on this forum for goal hitting purposes :) -- or even on the goals/accomplishments one like IsayUncle mentions lower down :)

@WorriedMagpie

Hi Magpie,

Sorry about your friend. Sometimes things just happen. I do hope they're ok too. I think we've replied and commented on a couple posts recently. I noticed there are a couple people here talking about goals. Some of the elders here renamed a forum for me called Goals and Accomplishments. I'm basically becoming the soul contributer thus far but mostly but I'm hoping to have help building it into a proactive goal setting platform. Right now its listed in the "Fun" catagory (to the) "Positivity & Gratitude" community (to the) "Goals and Accomplishments" forum.

I hope you do find another good consistent friend you can be wacky, weird and over the top with! ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ˜Žโค๏ธ

Yeah I've spotted your doings on there! - Im trying to find a bit more balance on 7cups so Ive not been there as much as Id like but it seems like youve been doing some awesome work there! - I think starting a thread there is a a great idea :) -- looks like im recruiting a small team XD assuming people want to work together, we'll probably see you over there :D

I could use a friend too today, and happy to be there for anyone else who needs it.


Iโ€™m 41, sober for almost 5 years, and living in foreign country where I donโ€™t know anyone, and just kind of generally struggling with it. This last month in particular has been pretty depressing and lonely. I deal with anxiety too and itโ€™s really been tough, but Iโ€™m a good listener, so happy to connect :)

@chrislfcdc

Hey Chris I'm sorry you've been having such a rough time ๐Ÿ˜” moving countries sounds like a huge change! I've never moved much further than the next city!

If you fancy joining the merry gang of friends and goal smashers you are absolutely more than welcome :D honestly as I was working with the person that left it was really helping with my anxiety, especially those tasks that I just put off for days :') - maybe joining up with us could help ? :)

I'm gunna wait for some of the people up top to reply (if they do) but after I'm thinking I'll put a new thread together for us all as a little safe space :) - let me know what you think! ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿฆ

chrislfcdc July 27th, 2022

@WorriedMagpie yeah, it's really been kind of a challenge. I'd definitely fancy getting in on the little group though, and I like the idea of a place for everyone just fine!

WorriedMagpie OP July 27th, 2022

@chrislfcdc

I can imagine! And glad your up for it :) hopefully you can bounce off us a bit and maybe feel a bit more comfortable where you are ๐Ÿ’š

Is there any specific goals you'd like to work on? :) - for me right now I'm trying to integrate the long term goals into short term goals and stay organised :D
